PREFATORY  NOTE 

TMs  index  undertakes  to  deal  only  with  the  printed  reports  of  administrative 
officers,  legislative  committees,  and  special  commissions  of  the  states  and  with  governors' 
messages  for  the  period  since  1789.  It  does  not  refer  to  constitutions,  laws,  legislative 
proceedings  or  court  decisions,  except  in  so  far  as  they  happen  to  be  found  in  the  class 
of  documents  above  mentioned.  It  attempts,  on  the  other  hand,  to  furnish  a  list,  as 
complete  as  possible,  of  aU  the  documents  and  messages  which  fall  within  its  scope,  in 
whatever  form  they  have  been  published,  whether  separately,  in  collected  dociunents, 
legislative  journals  or  volumes  of  laws,  and  to  indicate  the  volume  in  which  they  may 
be  found.  In  addition  to  furnishing  a  list  of  reports  and  messages,  the  index  imder- 
takes  to  supply  a  reference  by  volmne  and  page  to  all  material  of  economic  impor- 
tance which  they  contain. 

Although  the  index  is  confined  to  matter  of  economic  bearing,  the  term  ' '  economic  ' ' 
has  been  given  a  broad  interpretation.  In  view  of  this  liberal  interpretation  it  is 
believed  that  the  index  wiU  constitute  a  useful  addition  to  the  resources  of  students  of 
almost  any  aspect  of  American  history. 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  present  index  differs  both  in  scope  and  character  from  R.  R. 
Bowker's  "  State  Publications,"  the  valuable  pioneer  work  in  this  field.  It  is  narrower 
in  scope  than  "  State  Publications,"  which  aims  to  present  a  list  not  only  of  reports 
and  governors'  messages  but  of  aU  state  dociunents;  but  in  the  field  which  the  present 
work  covers  it  contains  not  only  a  more  complete  list  of  docmnents  than  has  hitherto  been 
published  but  also  an  index  of  their  contents  in  so  far  as  these  have  an  economic  bearing. 

The  arrangement  is  alphabetical  by  topics.  The  references  under  each  topic  are 
divided  into  two  groups,  viz.,  *'  serial  "  and  "  non-serial."  Within  each  of  these  divi- 
sions the  arrangement  is  chronological.  Numerous  cross-references  will,  it  is  hoped, 
make  it  possible  to  discover  with  little  difficulty  aU  the  material  bearing  on  a  topic.  A 
division  of  serial  reports  into  more  than  one  series  occurs  whenever  there  is  a  change  in 
title,  in  the  authority  making  the  report  or  in  frequency  of  issue.  It  wiU  be  seen  that 
this  division  is  not  an  arbitrary  one.  It  is  made  in  the  behef  that  it  wiU  contribute  to 
a  clearer  understanding  of  the  facts  than  would  a  narrative  explanation. 

Uniform  entry  words  for  subjects  recurring  in  different  states  wiLL  be  retained 
throughout  the  series.  It  will  thus  be  possible  to  make  a  study  not  only  of  the  his- 
torical development  of  an  economic  subject  as  reflected  in  the  documents  of  an  indi- 
vidual state  but  also  to  make  a  comparative  study  of  that  development  as  it  has  taken 


PREFATORY  NOTE 


place  in  the  country  at  large.  To  accomplish  this  purpose  it  has  been  necessary  to 
make  the  selection  of  entry  words  without  reference  to  the  peculiarities  of  local  usage, 
such  peculiarities  being  recognized  in  the  case  of  each  state  by  cross-references.  The 
abbreviations  employed  are  believed  to  be  sufficiently  obvious  to  make  a  table  of  them 
imnecessary.    Unless  otherwise  stated  the  size  of  the  books  is  octavo. 

A  feature  introduced  in  the  New  York  part  of  this  index,  and  not  employed  in 
the  preceding  parts  (i.  e.,  Maine,  New  Hampshire,  and  Vermont),  is  the  system  of 
references  from  locality.    This  feature  has  been  made  a  part  of  the  succeeding  issues. 

Another  change  of  importance,  namely,  the  addition  to  the  list  of  topics  of  the 
names  of  those  persons  who  have  exercised  an  important  influence  on  the  develop- 
ment of  the  economic  life  of  the  state,  was  introduced  in  the  Ohio  part  of  this  index, 
and  has  been  retained  in  the  following  parts,  viz.,  New  Jersey  and  the  present  volume. 
In  other  respects  this  voliune  follows  the  form  of  its  predecessors.  While  this  introduc- 
tion of  the  names  of  persons  into  the  body  of  the  index  is  admittedly  an  innovation,  it  is 
believed  that  it  will  be  distinctly  helpful  to  the  student. 

Difficulties  which  have  delayed  the  completion  of  this  volume  of  the  index  were 
chiefly  due  to  the  great  amount  of  material  to  be  examined,  as  well  as  to  the  extremely 
crude  maimer  in  which  the  collected  docmnents  were  for  many  years  made  up.  Although 
every  reasonable  effort  has  been  made  to  find  these  documents,  some  have  without  doubt 
escaped  the  notice  of  the  compiler.  In  order  to  make  this  early  record  as  complete  as  pos- 
sible, the  Senate  and  House  journals  were  read  for  orders  to  print,  and  entries  have  been 
made  for  all  items  which  were  found  to  have  been  ordered  printed,  although  no  copy  may 
have  been  found.  The  "  not  found  "  note  attached  to  these  items  in  the  index  does  not 
signify  that  there  may  not  be  copies  in  some  of  the  libraries  examined.  Although  every 
facility  was  most  generously  extended  the  compiler  by  the  libraries,  there  is  in  every 
library  uncatalogued  material,  in  particular  pamphlets,  and  variations  in  shelf  arrange- 
ment, etc.,  which  preclude  a  definite  statement  in  any  event.  A  second  difficidty  is  the 
existence  to  an  unknown  extent  of  German  editions  of  the  House  and  Senate  journals, 
legislative  documents  and  of  many  executive  reports.  In  the  first  30  days  of  1845,  for 
instance,  thirteen  executive  reports  were  ordered  printed  in  German,  500  copies  being 
printed  in  each  case  with  one  exception,  viz.,  the  governor's  message  of  which  1000 
copies  were  ordered  printed. 

The  present  volume  has  been  preceded  by  twelve  similar  volumes,  devoted  to  the 
states  of  Maine,  New  Hampshire,  Vermont,  New  York,  Rhode  Island,  Massachusetts, 
California,  Illinois,  Kentucky,  Delaware,  Ohio  and  New  Jersey,  respectively.  It  will 
be  followed  by  others,  each  devoted  to  a  single  state.  The  work  when  completed  will, 
therefore,  furnish  an  index  to  the  economic  material  in  the  reports  and  governors'  mes- 
sages of  all  the  states  of  the  Union. 

In  the  preparation  of  this  volume  the  collection  of  the  New  York  PubUe  Library 
has  been  used  as  a  basis,  and,  unless  otherwise  shown,  the  material  indexed  is  in  that 
library.    The  collections  of  the  Library  of  Congress,  the  Pennsylvania  State  Library,

•  The  Identiflcation  of  the  Senate  Journals  for  1805/0  and  1806/7 
is  apt  to  be  confusing  if  the  appendices  are  taken  Into  consideration. 
The  dllliculty  results  from  the  failure  of  binders  of  late  years  to  note 
that  the  Reports  of  the  Treasurer  and  the  Register  General  for 
1805/6  were  not  published  In  connection  with  the  Senate  Journal; 
In  one  Instance  (Ilist.  Socy.  of  Penn.)  they  have  been  bound  with 
the  Journal  for  1805/6,  an  Impossibility  of  course  in  the  original 
edition:  In  another  Instance  (New  York  Public  l^lbrary),  they  are 
bound  with  the  Senate  Journal  for  1806/7,  which  Is  ™"<'i't  5" 
far  as  date  is  concerned.  However,  copies  of  the  Journal  for  18UB/  ( 
seen  In  the  llbrarv  of  the  Library  Company  of  I'hila.,  In  the  Hist. 
Socy.  of  I'enn.,  and  In  the  Penn.  State  Library  contain  an  appendix 
as  noted,  viz.  :  22,  33  pp.  .  ^    , 

In  regard  to  the  German  edition  the  following  entries  were  noted  :

•  Four  copies  of  this  Journal  were  compared,  viz. :  one  in  the 
N.  Y.  Public  Library,  one  in  the  Hist.  Socy.  of  Penn.,  Phlla.,  one 
In  the  library  of  the  Library  Co.  of  Phlla.,  and  one  in  the  Penn. 
State  Library;  the  hitter  Is  the  only  one  that  contains  an  Appendix. 
This,  tocether  with  the  fact  that  the  publication  of  the  treasurer's 
and  auditor  Ren.'s  repts.  ns  on  appendix  to  the  Journal  had  been 
abandoned  since  1806.  seems  to  warrant  the  statement  that  origi- 
nally there  was  no  appendix  to  this  Journal.

"  The  e.\periment  station  o£  the  I'enn.  State  College,  in 
its  present  form,  was  organized  under  the  provisions 
of  the  Hatch  Act  on  June  :V>,  1887.  This  organiza- 
tion, however,  was  an  expansion  and  change  of  form 
and  not  a  new  departure.  Since  the  foundation  of 
the   college,   experimental   work   in   the  interest   of 

Hgrle.    had    been    carried    on In    18G8   and 

1809,    three    experimental    farms    were    purchased 
under  the  provisions  of  the  legislative  act  of  Feb.  19.

• .     Law   recognizing  state  agric.   socy.   as   in   some 

way  connected  with  public  administration  of  sub- 
ject, by  ann.  apprn.  should  be  repealed;  the  interest 
should  have  but  one  head,  state  bd.  of  agric.  and 
apprns.  be  made  to  that  bd.  alone:  agric.  bd.  should 
have  exclusive  control  of  publication  of  agric.  repts.; 
"  agric.  socy.  is  a  private  corporation  conducted 
with  a  view  to  the  private  profit  of  its  stockholders, 
most  or  many  of  whom  are  capitalists  and  farmers 
of  large  wealth,  who  are  principally  concerned  in 
the  refinements  of  agric,  fancy  stock-raising,  and 
the  development  of  fleet  horses,  rather  than  the 
practical  concerns  of  every-day  farming.  Such  an 
Institution  is  well  enough  in  its  sphere,  and  to  be 
commended  as  a  private  enterprise;  but  as  the  state 
has  a  dept.  of  its  own  devoted  to  this  subject,  what- 
ever public  money  is  spent  for  this  purpose  should

be   spent   through   the   recognized   public   channel. 
By  dividing  the  resources  intended  for  this  interest,

1785,  and  being  then,  and  for  sometime  thereafter, 
the  only  agric.  socy.  In  the  Union.  Its  field  of  use- 
fulness was  widely  extended,  and  it  included  among 
its  members  most  of  the  prominent  Amer.  and 
many  of  the  European  agriculturists  of  the  day. 
As  .  .  .  new  socys.  sprang  up  in  this  and  other 
states,  it  lost  its  national  character;  and  when, 
mainly  through  the  exertions  of  its  members,  the 
Penn.  State  Socy.  was  organized,  the  circle  of  its 
immediate  Influence  became  further  contracted.  It 
still  has  upon  its  roll,  members  in  Md.,  I)el.  and

Early  In  the  year  1789  recommendations  for  a  general 
system  of  Inland  navigation  were  made  by  both  the 
Supreme  Executive  Council  and  the  Legislature  of 
Penn.  :  Apr.  13.  1791.  a  law  was  passed  appropriat- 
ing sums  for  Improving  the  navigation  of  certain 
rivers  and  constructing  certain  roads  with  view 
to  connecting  "  the  eastern  and  western  waters  of 
the  state  " — an  object  finally  accomplished  by  the 
Penn.  CTanal.  The  Improvement  of  river  naviga- 
tion by  removal  of  obstructions,  erection  of  water- 
locks,  etc..  and  the  numerous  surveys  and  explora- 
tions during  the  period  1789-1824  were  the  experi- 
mental measures  out  of  which  developed  the  state 
svstem  of  internal  Improvement  designated  by  act 
of  Feb.  25,  1826,  "  The  Pennsylvania  Canal." 
(See  below.  Canals  and  Slack-Water  Navigation: 
Individual— State.) 

For  the  reason  that  the  early  river  improvements  were 
largely  along  the  lines  later  Included  In  the  state 
system  of  internal  improvement  and  are  considered 
as  inaugural  steps  in  the  development  of  that 
system,  a  large  part  of  the  material  relating  to 
Improvement  of  navigation  of  rivers  and  other 
streams  has  been  classified  here,  in  preference  to 
River  Conservancy,  or  Public  Works,  headings 
used  In  preceding  Indexes  for  this  kind  of  material. 

The  greatest  Incentive  to  improvements  In  Inland  navi- 
gation in  Penn.  was  Its  natural  adaptability. 
Among  the  Influential  factors  in  development  may 
be  noted  (1)  The  Society  for  the  Promotion  of 
Internal  Improvement  of  Road  and  River  Naviga- 
tion, formed  In  1789  ;  a  memorial  of  this  Society  to 
the  Legislature,  Feb.  7,  1791.  recommended  a  line 
of  public  works  which  was  practically  developed  In 
the  state  system  of  public  works  ;  reprints  of  their 
memorials  to  the  Penn.  Legisl.  are  Included  in 
Amer.  State  Papers.  Misc.  v.  2.  pp.  834,  et  seq. 
(2)  Improvements  In  neighboring  states.  (3)  The 
many  private  canal  and  slack-water  navigation  com- 
panies which  had  been  Incorporated  and  were 
in  active  operation  before  the  state  system  was 
definitely  located.  The  success  of  these  companies 
was  a  strong  argument  for  the  establishment  of 
a  state  work  as  a  source  of  revenue.  Moreover  it 
was  thought  that  the  possible  combination  of  these 
companies  might  prove  a  dangerous  monopoly. 
(4)  The  Penn.  Society  for  the  I'romotion  of  In- 
ternal Improvements,  formed  in  1824.  did  much  to 
bring  about  state  legislation  on  Internal  Improve- 
ment :  their  publications  being  unofficial  It  has 
not  been  possible  to  Introduce  them  into  this 
Index  ;  an  excellent  collection  of  their  addresses, 
petitions  and  sundry  publications  Is  In  the  library 
of  the  Library  Co.  of  Phlla.  The  Society  In- 
directly promoted  the  Canal  Convention  held  at 
Harrisburg.  Aug.  4-6,  1825,  which  adopted  a  resolu- 
tion favoring  Internal  Improvements  to  connect 
the  Susquehanna  and  the  Allegheny  and  Ohio, 
and  from  the  Allegheny  to  Lake  Erie.

Under  act  of  Apr.  II,  1825. 

Note:  Throughout  this  series  there  Is  much  variation 
between  the  departmental  and  document  editions, 
and,  In  some  cases,  between  the  Senate  and  House 
departmental  editions.  Unless  stated  to  the  con- 
trary, departmental  editions  from  1828/9  to  1857/8 
do  not  include  accompanying  documents  nor  the 
Journal.  The  accompanying  documents  are  in- 
cluded In  the  document  editions  up  to  and  Including 
1842/3.  The  Journal  of  the  board  of  canal  commis- 
sioners has  been  listed  separately  (Group  B)  from 
the  annual  report,  though  It  Immediately  follows 
that  report  as  printed  in  the  Senate  and  House 
Journals  ;  it  occurs  In  the  departmental  edition  of 
the  annual  report  in  1827  and  1827/8  only. 

On  account  of  the  varying  pagination  and  contents  of 
the  different  editions,  a  particular  effort  has  been 
made  in  indexing  the  reports  to  Indicate  the  edition 
from  which  taken  and  whether  found  in  that  edition 
alone  ;  the  report  proper  of  the  canal  commissioners 
occurs  In  all  editions,  and,  as  a  rule  is  paged 
uniformly.

•'  The   number  of   miners   in   this,   ns  well   as   in   other 

districts,   is  always  greater  at  each   mine   than   is 

really  necessary  for  the  proiluction  of  coal  needed 

by  tiie  operator  ....  the  result  is  that  the  men's 

earnings  are  very  small In  consequence  of 

this  one  of  the  managers  resolved  that  he  would 
employ  only  enough  men  to  give  him  the  amt.  of 
coal  he  needed  daily,  and  he  did  so  and  kept  an
